Indigenous sheep of Kenya are very important to resource-poor farmers and pastoralists. They have over time adapted to the harsh environmental conditions of the arid and semi-arid lands where they are faced with challenges of persistent droughts, diseases, conflicts and poor nutrition, yet show ...

Theileria parva schizont-infected lymphocyte culture isolates from western, central and coastal Kenya were analysed for size polymorphism at 30 T. parva-specific variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) loci using a panel of mini- and micro-satellite markers. The mean number of alleles ranged from 3 ...

Twenty new world camelidae primer pairs were selected for cross-species amplification of loci in the old world camelids, the dromedary (Camelus dromedarius) and the bacterian (camelus bactrianus). A panel of DNA samples from 34 unrelated dromedaries (Kenya) and from 34 unrelated bactrians (32 dom...
